    Please find out what you can from the previous teacher. She can help you
    through the ropes. You may find that thins that were a challenge for her may
    be less of one for you. Same in return.

    The dollar figure on materials is low for 600 kids-perhaps you need to take
    an inventory. But in the mean time, you might want to ask if there are PTA
    funds that might be tapped for extra supplies. I have had luck with that.
    Thirty minutes from home is a great length of time to collect and organize
    your thoughts and/or shift gears from the work "Jan" to the home "Jan".
    I am hoping-just got my Masters and celebrate your good fortune!
    I have a chance at a job in two different directions from home and both are
    -ironically- 30 minutes from home.
    Don't dare worry about shifting down to elementary.
    I have done everything from musical interpretations a la Kandinsky
    in visual form with oil pastels to statement pieces to share the kids'
    feelings about domestic violence.
    These kids can do it all-just give them a chance.
    I just don't go into as deeply into art history-although they still know
    content-and techniques are at the exploratory stage with many. But they are
    so capable
    Let us know how it goes.
